Dear Marjorie and Family, we were so sad to hear about Cyril’s passing. He will be remembered for his kindness and his great sense of humor. I will never forget how he tried to teach me how to bowl, unfortunately I was a lost cause, hence the skunk award. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and the family at this difficult time. They for sure gained a special Angel in Heaven.
I saw Cyril at the St. Kitts hospital 3 weeks ago, and as he lived his life, he was still full of optimism.
We were days apart in age and always wished each other a Happy Birthday over the years.
Cyril introduced me to the wonderful sport of Pickleball in 2015. He approached me as I was walking the track at the Welland Y. His enthusiasm and magnetic personality had me hooked on pickleball and him instantly. He organized huge tournaments, complete with Strong Kids t-shirts like no one else could. I am going to miss Cyril, as will so many others, especially the kids at the Y.
Marjie, Roger, Dwayne and Family, we are so sorry for your loss. He may be gone but will never be forgotten.
Hugs and best wishes,
